Horoscope Part Fifteen

I closed my eyes slowly under the July sun, feeling weaker to its heat. I smiled as I laid in the gentle green grass, feeling safe in my own back yard, arms and legs outstretched in a star-like position. Nothing could ruin this moment…“TAYLOR! SAUL’S ON THE PHONE!” Except for that. I stood up slowly, stretching. Fucking Saul… I walked into the house picking up the phone.“Hello?” I asked in my usual some-what cheery tone. “Hey, um… Pieces, Scorpio and Gemini are outside of my house. What should I do?” He asked. My eyes widened.“Um, what?” I asked, “What are they doing?”“Well…” Saul said as I heard him lift up the blinds, “They look pissed and are just standing there… But no one’s home today and… oh crap they’re walking up to the door.”“Wait right there, I’ll be there in a few. If worst comes to worst, get out of there as quickly as possible” I ordered.“Got it” He stated. I heard a click, then I myself tossed the phone back into its original holder. Grabbing my bag I sighed, looking at the drain.

go on, use your powers. It’ll be alright

I’ll get there using my regular humanness to do this thank you very much

humanness?

shut it, former cancer

I gripped the skateboard that Cassie had made on our previous adventure and rode down to Saul’s house as quickly as possible. As I neared the house, I skidded to a halt, leaping off of my skateboard and ditching it, sneaking around the house. I knocked on Saul’s window gently. He peered through and spotted me. He pointed up, showing me where they were. I sighed. What was I going to do?

you realize that there’s more than one cancer form, right?

what?

why do you think they want a cancer? You have a light form, dark form, animal form and a final form. Just use your animal form and sneak through. They left the door open.

I peered around the corner, but felt an invisible force pull me back. I held up a finger to motion him to wait, then I closed my eyes, turning into a small crab. Saul smirked and pointed at me, but I snapped my claw in iritance. He quickly shut up. I crawled up the steps and in through the door, just nearly missing the underside of Gemini’s foot. I looked up, examining him. He had short, choppy white hair in this form and sharp grey eyes. He seemed to look at me, but when I froze, he looked away, as if not noticing that I was there. Feeling relief, I climbed down the stairs and into Saul’s bedroom, staring at him. He stared out the window, then back at me.“What?” I hissed, despite the fact he couldn‘t hear me. Regardless, He picked me up in his hand and showed me the window. My clothes were sitting in a neat, somewhat crumpled pile just outside the window. I moaned. Now what? I climbed down Saul’s sleeve and onto the ground. I skittered across his carpet and peeked out of the door. They were now upstairs, somewhere. I looked back and then to Saul. As if to get my hint, he tossed a t-shirt and jeans into his bathroom down the hall, quickly enough that it was unnoticeable. I quickly skittered into the bathroom and slid across his linoleum, managing to shut the door with my claws. Behind the door I quickly changed back and slipped into his clothes. Peering out, I was glad to see that they hadn’t come down here yet. I motioned for Saul to move over towards me and he did as he was told. I opened his back door and walked out, motioning for him to follow.“Come on, we’re gonna jump the house” I stated. Saul stared at me strangely.“Yeah, but how are we gonna do that? We’re water types, not earth or fire or wind.” Saul stated. I thought for a moment.“We’ll have to be quick… but we can use the water in your pool to blast us over…” I explained. Saul sighed and nodded.“Okay.. But I spent so much time on my hair this morning..” He moaned. I glared at him“Saul, shut up and help me!” I hissed. He sighed again and walked over. I held one hand out to the pool. Saul mimed my action. Both of our eyes changed to their spirit blue as the water rose and knocked us up into the air and over the house. I gazed through the window as we flew over, but they had moved down stairs, which meant they hadn’t seen what had just happened. As soon as we landed, we started running. Fortunately for us, they didn’t follow. Saul grinned as we dashed around the corner.“Man, they didn’t even notice us!” He exclaimed. I nodded grinning.“I wonder if they know that they missed us by a long shot?” I asked. Saul shrugged.“You never know. They could have heard us, but just didn’t feel like following… or they were after something else.” He stated. I raised an eyebrow at him.“What else could they have been after?” I asked. Saul shrugged.“I dunno. Some hairspray. Gel. My random bandanas” he stated. I rolled my eyes.“Well, for now I guess you can hang out at my house.” I stated. Saul nodded.“Do you think we should call a group meeting?” He asked. I nodded.“Definitely.” I stated.
